Top Merang Hotel Reviews

Redang Island Resort

8/10 Good

"Good swimming pool, and friendly staff. However, the resort isn’t well located, you need to rent a motorbike to move around the island. Also, the options to eat are minimum. I recommend maximum 3 nights at the resort there isn’t much to do. The boat to go to Long beach isn’t available every day. Be aware of the tourism fees"
